SURF:  Swells generated by Leslie are affecting Bermuda and the
northern Leeward Islands and will reach other portions of the Lesser
Antilles, Greater Antilles, and Bahamas through Saturday. Swells are
expected to reach portions of the east coast of the United States
by Sunday. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf
and rip current conditions.  Please consult products from your local
weather office.
